Well it’s 26 August and we’ve had a lot of fun this summer . 1st of all George and Melissa did buy an amazing lot with 20 acres of woods between Charlottesville and Richmond, VA.
We spent 6 weeks in Western New York. Lots of gardening and canning of pickles and beets and eating Swiss chard. Got out on Lake Erie 3 times with John’s brother Paul and caught and ate some Bass. John enjoyed lots of golf on various courses. We enjoyed camping with John’s brother Sam and Fatima in Hammondsport, NY and also camping in and enjoyed Letchworth Statepark. We even got to rendezvous with Margie and Ralph in Batavia, Ny while visiting cousins! We also went into Hamilton, Canada for a wonderful visit with my 97 year old Aunt Adair, cousin Lauren and her son Alec. What a treat.
Then we headed west along Intestate 80. lots of corn fields in Ohio, Iowa and Indiana and some in Nebraska. It is indeed the Heartland. After 5 days we arrived at our dear friend Gina Lee’s house between Laramie and .Cheyenne, WY. We will enjoy a week on the prairie!
